6 to the power of 0 is one because, if we work backwards, say from 6 to the power of 3 which equals 216, then we go to 6 to the power of 2 which is 36, what can we do to get from 216 to 36, we can divide by 6, so if we divide 36 by 6 we get 6 or 6 to the 1 power, divide by 6, 1 more time we get 1 or 6 to the power of 0
